Virtual office: The Cisco 880 Series is ideal for corporate teleworkers who have a mix of broadband
●
connection types such as DSL, 3G, and Metro Ethernet. The Cisco 880 SRST Series provides a secure
virtual office with all the collaborative services such as data, voice, and fax services. SRST helps ensure
voice services are operational in case of WAN link failure, and redundant WAN links help ensure business
continuity. QoS features in the Cisco 880 Series allow for connection of an IP or analog phone to the router,
giving voice traffic precedence over data applications. Integrated WLAN support in the Cisco 880 Series
helps ensure that if wireless connectivity is used it is secure. (Refer to Cisco Virtual Office Solution,
http://www.cisco.com/go/cvo, for more information.)
Remote call-center agent: Similar to teleworking applications, this solution extends the Cisco IP Contact
●
Center solution for telephone call-center agents to remote sites. With a high-quality, secure connection
through the Cisco 880 Series, call-center agents can be dispersed away from costly call-center facilities while
maintaining secure and productive voice and data access in their home. SRST and business-continuity
solutions in the Cisco 880 Series provide reliability and continuous business operation.
Retail VPN: Retail stores migrating from dialup connections for point-of-sale transactions can use the Cisco
●
880 Series to take advantage of low-cost broadband access with the required security to comply with
payment-card-industry (PCI) and other data security requirements. They can then add multiple devices and
applications to the store network to take advantage of the increased bandwidth and also incorporate optional
WLAN support to enable secure mobility and enhance productivity.
Managed services: Service providers and value-added resellers can use the Cisco 880 Series as a platform
●
to offer differentiated business-class security and WLAN services for small business customers.

ability to designate a port as the network edge.
● An optional external PoE adapter powers IP phones and external access points to avoid
individual power supplies or power injectors.
● VLANs allow for secure segmentation of network resources.
● A single dual-purpose port provides direct connection to a console or external modem for
management or backup access points.
● This broadband router offers a secure integrated access point in a single device.
● This integrated Wi-Fi access point offers IEEE 802.11n draft 2.0 standard support for
mobile access to high-bandwidth data, voice, and video applications through the use
of multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology that provides increased throughput,
reliability, and predictability.
● The Cisco 880 Series supports both autonomous and unified modes.
● A built-in real-time clock maintains an accurate date and time for applications that require
an accurate time stamp, such as logging and digital certificates.
